I called the dental office and explained that i would like to go ahead with the adjustment and would like to go ahead and get mold for the new crown and was told they would not do it until i went to see a specialist first to check for root canal. im pretty frustrated right now because this will cost me another $65.00 just for consult fee. i then decided to call my insurance company and explained what was going on and was told since the procedure was not complete to just request for refund. Thanks Dr. Tsang for listening and your professional advice.
Yes, I would go back and have them adjust it again so that you're symptom free. The adjustment should be relatively fast and at worse, they can take the whole crown out of your bite so its really short but since its not your permanent crown, it won't be a big issue.
i really do want to go back especially when she has to order me another crown because she went all the way through to the metal part of the one im wearing now. so should i just wait until the new crown arrives before going through this again?
If that's the case, I would recommend getting the bite adjusted and making sure you leave with the bite comfortable. It should feel normal and shouldn't stand out in any way. It may be a little sore initially due to the excessive trauma on it but should gradually go away. It shouldn't feel like it hits first though.
yes it does help with the bite after adjusting it but once i eat something it starts to pain all over again. i can feel the difference in the crown being too high because it hits first before the other side does.
Ask your dentist to see a specialist such as an endodontist (root canal specialist) to see if there is a need for a root canal. Its very common to have problems with the bite with new crowns but generally it shouldn't take that many adjustments. After awhile, it makes more sense to find another possible solution than to use the same procedure again and again. Does adjusting the bite help at all?
